# How to: Use System Fonts Keys
|
|
System resources expose a number of system metrics as resources to help developers create visuals that are consistent with system settings. <xref:System.Windows.SystemFonts> is a class that contains both system font values and system font resources that bind to the values—for example, <xref:System.Windows.SystemFonts.CaptionFontFamily%2A> and <xref:System.Windows.SystemFonts.CaptionFontFamilyKey%2A>.
|
|
|
|
System font metrics can be used as either static or dynamic resources. Use a dynamic resource if you want the font metric to update automatically while the application runs; otherwise use a static resource.
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> Dynamic resources have the keyword *Key* appended to the property name.
|
|
|
|
The following example shows how to access and use system font dynamic resources to style or customize a button. This [!INCLUDE[TLA2#tla_xaml](../../../includes/tla2sharptla-xaml-md.md)] example creates a button style that assigns <xref:System.Windows.SystemFonts> values to a button.

## Example
